Maverick.AU 13,281 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Will be interesting to see who we can land. Early and a lot can happen over the course of the offseason. Chance and Yohan transferring tells me that BP has a plan, we'll just have to wait and see if he can cash in on that plan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoALtiger 3,865 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 If the only turnover is the two freshmen and everyone else comes back, imma be very, very disappointed. In other words, I really need to see some of our seniors NOT take their covid year and head on to other adventures. Love to see one returning guard move on to other opportunities and wouldn’t lose much sleep if another did as well. If we gotta do a big rebuild, let’s get on with it and do it right. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like after this season and after the last transfer class/incoming freshmen that BP understands what he needs to do. Whether he gets what he is hoping for is a different story, but to act like a coach of this magnitude doesn't have a "plan" in place is egregious 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The timing of him leaving, not that he chose to leave. Still had a plan in place if he decided to leave after the meeting that ended up not happening.

This goes back to a point @RunInRedmade in The Nest. Before now, even though he has taken transfers in the past, he wasn't crazy about doing it. Hopefully he has turned a corner there. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AURex 2,012 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Frankly, Westry didn't show me anything memorable this past season, but I put it all on his injury. But if CBP is happy to see him depart, he must have spied other issues that had nothing to do with the injury. Personally, I'd be glad to see some other guys head out, but I know that CBP will work with what he's got. This past season, he had not so much. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I love CBP but the way things work now, can not sit back anymore due to the Wild West NIL mentality. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWALA Tiger 3,535 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Bird posted this somewhere and he is spot on. We can't jump off a cliff every time a transfer that we are interested in signs some where else. Let the portal season end, see who AU loses and gets. 2 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aubiefifty 16,808 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 Auburn has reached out to Washington State transfer TJ Bamba JD McCarthy ~2 minutes With just four teams left alive in college basketball the transfer portal is once again starting to fill up. Auburn fans saw that on Tuesday as both Chance Westry and Yohan Traore decided to enter the portal. It was fully expected that Auburn will lose several players to the portal each off-season but they are also expected to add players, something Bruce Pearl has shown a knack for doing. The Tigers have already reached out to several players and have now reportedly reached out to former Washington State Cougar TJ Bamba, according to a report from On3’s Joe Tipton. Bamba announced his intentions to enter the 2023 NBA draft but retain his college eligibility and enter the transfer portal earlier in March. The junior guard averaged 15.8 points and 3.7 rebounds last season, making 31 starts. He shot 42.6% from the field and made 37.2% of his shots from 3-point range for the Cougars. The Denver, Colorado native has two seasons of eligibility remaining, and at 6-foot-5 and 210-pounds he fits the bill as a bigger guard that Auburn is reportedly looking for. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When I was checking the other sites they all were & have discussed problems getting their majors worked out at AU. Not even remotely a Hoke thing. And the reporters can't be specific on the major issues because they don't have access to players' academics & rightfully so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
